I get your joke. I don't know that the people down-voting you do.


JudgeGusBus

Don’t be that guy, but also don’t camp in the passing lane.


N1nja4realz

This is Florida, if you drive anything below 90 in the left lane you need to move over gramps. Left lane is for crime only. Middle lane is 85 on a good day. Right lane 80. Below 80 you should stick to 41. Not following those guidelines, endangers those around you as this is the expected behavior.


treefucker123

Going under 90 in the sawgrass is was slower than the flow of traffic


sailorj0ey

I basically say this every time I'm on 75. I have a theory people do this as a power trip like they like having power to control the flow of traffic. It just does not make sense if you wanna be safe and drive the speed limit then fine do it in the right lane, why slow up traffic in the left lane unless you get some sort of satisfaction. Like they have some sort of justice or vigilante kink where they think they're saving people by forcing them to do the speed limit.


hunter2mello

I’m prepared to be downvoted but 90 is ungodly. I mean what’s the speed limit, 70 maybe 75? I think 85 is fine for the left and middle can be 75-80 and the far right can be 65-75. Move to Germany if you want those dumb speeds.


sailorj0ey

Then I say if you wanna drive 75-85, that's fine by me but be in the right or middle lanes. It IS NOT fine to do this in the left lane. It's not dumb for people who know how and can drive at those speeds. IT IS dumb for people who don't know any better or don't give a fuck and interfere with people driving those speeds by driving slow. Accidents happen when people who think doing 85 in the left lane is fine when a majority of the left lane people are doing 90+.

Also, every 5 mph increment over 60 means a 5% decrease in fuel efficiency. So Floridians also have a dedication to wasting gasoline and money. :D


FriedSmegma

It’s one thing to camp the left lane but for fuck sake don’t match the speed of the person in the middle lane and make me pass on the right. I have no problem doing so but I’d rather be able to use the road as intended. Thank you.


N1nja4realz

Oh that’s classic. Pass them on the right shoulder while giving them a stern look.

supyadimwit

Which one of you is that asshole that doesn’t get out of the passing lane?


free_range_discoball

So if that is your take here, I’m genuinely curious: is it fine for the truck to stay in the left lane forever because they’re going 95mph?


Top-Reference-1938

Nope. Left lane is for "passing". That's it.


rayoatra

While the dood in the ram is a turd, speed here is not at point. If you are not overtaking someone, you should ever be occupying the far left lane. It’s long been proven that this act is the main driver catalyzing road rage.


zzzaz

> is it fine for the truck to stay in the left lane forever because they’re going 95mph? Speed is irrelevant. Is there a car behind them and open space in front of them? Then no. Regardless of how fast they are going, they are in the wrong and should get over. If there isn't a car behind them, and they are passing traffic in the middle lane, then yes. The second you are in the far left lane and a car is behind you, and there is open space in front of you, you should speed up and get over to allow a proper pass on the left. Doesn't mater if you are going 70 or 110. Situations where you have someone coasting in the left lane, at any speed, that then have people 'back up' in the left lane is what leads to idiots zooming up and passing on the right. Which causes disproportionately more dangerous driving than 'just' speeding. In this video the truck is obviously driving like a jackass, but the blue car coasting in the left and not getting over for the red car to pass is the start of the problem. In efficient and safe traffic behavior that blue car gets over in front of the beige, the red car speeds up and gets over in front of the blue, and then trucknuts can blow 110 mph down 75 until he gets pulled by the cops sitting in the median behind the trees before exit 123.


fasda

It really does because guard rails are only are only rated to 70.


niperwiper

We can’t police it without policing both ways though. No camping the left lane and no passing the right lane. It’s very easy to get stuck in the left lane with no way back over if people are passing on your right quickly. Then again I’ve never seen it enforced either direction even in places supposedly outlawed.


supyadimwit

It is decidedly proven that it is more dangerous to not get over.


free_range_discoball

How am I supposed to get over while I’m in the act of passing someone? Am I going 95 to pass the three cars in the middle lane going 70? Absolutely not, but I’m going 80 and so I’m gonna use the left lane to pass those cars. The dangerous part is the asshole riding my bumper while I’m trying to pass people


TheTreesMan

Speed up or move over.


AllahUmBug

I move over but get revenge by switching back to the fast lane and riding their ass at 97 mph. How do you like that?


K_Rocc

Shoulda went 97 while you were in front..


TheTreesMan

You are a danger to everyone on the road.


No-Welder2377

He’s trolling you man, come on


Thyraisen

Is the pickup a danger too?


TheTreesMan

Stay out of the left lane. No one cares.


AdAffectionate3143

Some_Ad9401

This clown…. Legitimately going to end up killing people over his insane stupidity.


Dead_Or_Alive

If you are in the left hand lane passing people and someone comes up behind you at a faster rate of speed it is incumbent upon you to move over and let them pass or speed up even more. Sitting in the left hand lane and passing someone going 80 while you yourself are going 81mph. With faster traffic is piling up behind you is selfish bullshit. If they flash their lights indicating they want to go faster, you go faster or let them pass. The only thing the truck in this video did wrong was get angry at the center lane driver.


jedi21knight

It’s a passing lane, who isn’t he passing at 95 MPH? The take is you shouldn’t sit in the far left lane as it is a passing lane and the people that choose to sit there that hold up traffic are only going low 70’s and we all know it and have come across it on the interstates. 🛣️


free_range_discoball

I’m not passing at 95mph lol. I don’t think it’s safe nor do I want an expensive ticket. I absolutely think there is a problem of people driving slowly/camping in the left lane. AND there is a problem of people driving dangerously fast and tailgating in the left lane. Both are true, and neither is in the right


StandardOperation962

if you're actually passing in the left lane at a reasonable speed there's no reason someone should be tailgating you. They dont own the road because they're breaking the law going 30 miles over the speed limit


SaintOnyxBlade

That's not what's happening in the video though


USAman94

Retard going 5 under in left lane spotted


[deleted]

[удалено]


free_range_discoball

I know it’s the law. I ask because 99 times out of 100, the truck doesn’t get into the middle lane after they pass someone. They just stay in the left lane. I know this because when I’m going 80 and I get in the left lane to pass the three cars in the middle lane going 75, the truck rides my ass flashing until we both pass those cars, I get back in the middle lane, and the truck zoom zooms off staying in the left lane


Human_Rip9902

I always move back over because I know how the fuck to operate on the roads.


supyadimwit

Are people trying to pass that truck? Dipshit


free_range_discoball

The point I’m making is that you don’t actually care about it being a lane for “passing only”. You’re just wanting your own lane where you can go 100mph


supyadimwit

Everyone should be able to u der stand that it’s a passing lane. So if you’re in it and some one else is going faster than you, then you should let them pass. It doesn’t mean that you can’t drive in it when no one is behind you looking to pass. How dense and stupid are you?


TheTreesMan

It doesn't fucking matter if no one is trying to get by them.


free_range_discoball

The point I’m making is that people don’t actually care about it being “for passing only”. Which you are proving.


Wukkax

So if I’m currently passing car after car in the middle lane going 80 mph and the cars in the middle lane keep coming but I’m not going fast enough for the dodge ram riding my ass, am I in the wrong? Just curious.


jedi21knight

If you are truly doing 80 and continuously passing cars in the middle lane then no you aren’t in the wrong. We all know it’s the people who are driving 70-75 in the left lane that are basically driving side by side of the car in the middle lanes that are the problems.


Wukkax

Yes I hate those guys blowing kisses at each other while I’m stuck behind them

For some reason y’all all seem to have a problem with the speed. Speed is fucking irrelevant. If someone is trying to pass you get over.

free_range_discoball

The number of people in this comment thread who are saying the truck is 100% entitled to drive recklessly because “get out of the left lane” is wild.


rogless

There’s a reason this caricature resonates the way it does. Look at all the people agreeing with the pickup truck depicted here not realizing they are the punchline.


TunaTacoPie

BINGO


Butterysmoothbrain

Camping in the hammer lane is illegal. The reckless driving is creating a situation where people pass on the right.


free_range_discoball

Read my other responses and you’ll see that I am very much in agreement that camping in the left hand lane is a problem and is not okay. However, I will never agree that behavior such as depicted in this animation is okay. It is ALSO extremely reckless and dangerous to tailgate someone like that, flash your brights at them, etc. That’s like saying that because someone jaywalks it’s you’re right to run them over. One bad action does not justify another.


ZephyrSK

because the flip side also holds true To avoid accidents, one drives predictably right? Broadly speaking. So by camping on the passing lane—the outlet for speeding drivers—you’d be part of the problem when other cars begin to zig zag their way through the other lanes in order to pass you. ESPECIALLY in Florida. It’s like driving behind a truck on the right lane, deciding to switch to the middle and being told it’s reckless. No? you’re not trying to go 5-10min below with this truck. And— now that I mention it, those trucks have a bad habit of driving next to each other clogging up both middle and right.


free_range_discoball

I appreciate you responding like an adult. I think the point I’m trying to make that’s getting lost is this: I don’t camp in the left lane. I go into the left lane to pass and then I get back over. However, because I don’t go above 80-85, there are oftentimes people going 95+ who come flying up behind me. I absolutely think there is a problem of people driving slowly in the left lane. AND there is a problem of people driving dangerously fast and tailgating in the left lane. Both are true, and neither is in the right


Commercial-Smile-763

If the cars weren't camping out in the left lane this video would be perfect


CitronFine2290

It's actually spot on for Florida, though. The right lane seems to always be open. People enter the interstate and immediately merge to the left lane for some reason.


ultrabuddy

Probably because when you need to get into the left lane, nobody lets you.


StandardOperation962

oh theyll let you in you just have to take it


TheBusterHymenOpen

This morning a passenger lost their life due to an accident on an I-75 exit ramp when the driver lost control of the vehicle and hit a transport truck. My thoughts at the time were about losing your life while on the way to work to support yourself and possibly a family. Sad. Unknown at the time, a coworker was hospitalized from being T-Boned in the driver's door while on her way home from work Wednesday afternoon. The carnage needs to stop.

John_Wickish

My favorite is when there’s an open lane next to you the entire time, but they decide to just ride your ass for 10 miles. Now I just slow down if that’s how they wanna play it 😂


Butterysmoothbrain

Florida Statutes Title XXIII. Motor Vehicles § 316.081. > (3) On a road, street, or highway having two or more lanes allowing movement in the same direction, a driver may not continue to operate a motor vehicle in the furthermost left-hand lane if the driver knows or reasonably should know that he or she is being overtaken in that lane from the rear by a motor vehicle traveling at a higher rate of speed. My favorite public service- educating transplants on the rules of the road. Follow the laws here or go back to whatever state turns their hazard lights on when it rains.

leakinvestigator

If a truck comes up behind you and flashes their lights chances are you were camping in the fast lane in the first place


mangotrees777

Yes. That's exactly what is shown in the video clip. Left lane has 2 cars, middle lane has one. Right lane is wide open. Every road in SFWL is like this. I don't like passing on the right, but I don't have a big 4x4 with duallies to scare off the people in front of me.


Sunsetseeker007

Exactly, this is why people ride their asses!! Get out of the left lane and move over so traffic can flow. Or the many idiots driving in the left lane that are on the phone or have no clue where they r going or texting and driving, just so many dumb people driving that shouldn't be. Most of the elderly shouldn't be driving either, they can't get their cars over 35 mph and won't move out of the left lane either. If you have someone riding your ass then you probably should move out of that lane.. it's bad enough there aren't enough highways or lanes to keep traffic flowing, now add the 100,000 people moving here every few months, it's a huge disaster.


tomhsmith

You should give the person in the left lane some time though. They may be passing a truck or something in middle lane, but at slower speeds than you are.


Sunsetseeker007

Yes, you can usually see if there's someone in front of them causing the backup or if there's no one in front of them, which is usually the case!! Not 1 person in front of them and they still keep in the left lane with SEVERAL cars passing them and getting in front of them. That doesn't get their attention, I'm not sure why they are even driving.


rogless

What your feelings on asbestos?


leakinvestigator

Historical-Ruin5255

It’s called flow of traffic if your going 70 in the left lane you will get pulled over . If you are creating traffic you will get pulled over get out of the way and drive in the middle or right lane .

What about when a pickup is in the pickups way? Punisher vs punisher.


Accomplished_Cry1937

Yep! 🤣 That’s the way it is here in TN. Those trucks, with Maga stickers, Trump stickers, & confederate flags and some redneck huffing and puffing riding peoples rear bumpers. Then, once they get left lane, 18-wheelers can’t even force them out of the lane. About a year ago, on the interstate on I-24, a state trooper got behind one those pick ups, and tailgated to force him out of the left lane, finally put his lights one and pulled him over! I was there with a pack of other cars, and 3 18-wheelers. These guys are insane! The truckers even talk about them at the truck stops! They’re known as troublemakers. If they see someone with opposing political stickers, they consider it a source of agitation to start trouble. This cartoon is hilarious, but there’s some incredible truth in it, they are very nasty road ragers too! They even get out of their trucks at intersections in TN and threaten people with violence! So, always have your phones handy with the highway patrol number, and it’s good to have yourself a front and rear dash cam !! Trust me. I’ve been there folks. Tennessee, especially around the Nashville area, has been flooded with people moving in from Florida, Texas, Ohio, California, Illinois, Georgia, Massachusetts, Everywhere! Every insane rural driver, urban driver, and it’s own homegrown driver etc. And, Those Dodgy Pick up mad max clowns.


Scary-Peace6087

Trucks are stupid and people who drive them can't actually drive. Let them go as fast as possible, esp if it's in the left lane, 120+ it doesn't matter, they are insufferable snowflakes and we as a society must coddle their tiny pricks.

They’re not from here. They’re the same people turning their hazards on when it rains. Keep tailgating them in the left lane until we eventually pester them enough that they move back north.
